The legend took to the stage after Noel Gallagher, performing a stellar set of classics from throughout his colourful career โ including solo staples alongside many numbers from his time with The Beatles and Wings.
After playing โGet Backโ by the Fab Four, McCartney beckoned the Foo Fighters frontman on stage.
โNow, Iโve got a little surprise for you,โ teased McCartney, before inviting โyour hero from the west coast of America โ Dave Grohl!โ
After some light banter of Paul offering, โHi Dave,โ before Grohl replied, โHi Paul. How are you?โ the pair then tore into The Beatlesโ โI Saw Her Standing Thereโ and Wingsโ โBand On The Runโ.
โThis guy flew in especially to do this,โ Macca then jovially told the crowd, revealing how Grohl overcame flight cancellations from Los Angeles. This moment also marked the first time that Grohl had appeared on stage since the death of his Foo Fighters bandmate Taylor Hawkins in March.
When the crowd thought that the surprises were over, McCartney told the crowd: โWeโve got another surprise for youโ, teasing another guest โfrom the East Coast Of Americaโ.
Then, to the awe of the thousands in attendance, Springsteen took to the stage to a rapturous response to perform his own โGlory Daysโ and The Beatlesโ โI Wanna Be Your Manโ. This comes after the pair did the same in New York earlier this month.
โAre you kidding?โ joked McCartney after turning to Springsteen. โThank you for coming, man.โ
After a virtual duet with John Lennon, McCartney and band then welcomed Grohl and Springsteen back to close the set.
